o A Possible Landing Site for the ExoMars Rover in Aram Dorsum http://hirise.lpl.arizona.edu/ESP_040881_1880 This image is part of a proposed landing site for the ExoMars Rover, planned for launch in 2018. o Diverse Deposits in Melas Chasma http://hirise.lpl.arizona.edu/ESP_041134_1720 This image includes chaotic deposits with a wide range of colors. o A Fresh Shallow Valley Transitions to an Inverted Channel http://hirise.lpl.arizona.edu/ESP_041144_2200 Inverted channels form when a valley fills with materials. o Gullies on the Wall of an Unnamed Crater in Utopia Planitia http://hirise.lpl.arizona.edu/ESP_041866_2290 The banked, sinuous shape of the gully channels suggest that water was involved in their formation.
